The producers of the most recent Malayalam movie, “Malayalee From India,” have revealed a significant development regarding its OTT release. They have verified that the film, featuring Nivin Pauly and Dhyan Sreenivasan in lead roles, will premiere on SonyLIV in July. Nevertheless, the specific release date has yet to be disclosed.
Nivin Pauly and Dhyan Sreenivasan’s latest film, Varshangalkku Shesham, commenced streaming on the same OTT platform on June 6. With the high expectations surrounding it, it is presumed that the digital streaming platform also made a substantial payment for the movie’s digital rights. It is logical to anticipate that starting from the first week of July, Malayalee From India will be accessible for streaming on SonyLIV. The delay in the OTT release may have been influenced by the film’s lackluster performance at the box office and the mixed reviews it received after its theatrical release.
The film “Malayalee From India” is a captivating blend of humor and drama. It tells the story of Aalparambil Gopi, a man whose life revolves around politics and cricket. His life takes a drastic turn when he gets caught up in a controversial issue in his hometown through his friend. This forces him to confront his own biases and prejudices while forming a deeper bond with his friend. Critics have praised the movie’s portrayal of a satirical take on the current socio-political landscape. The film effectively highlights the dangers of engaging in divisive politics and being deceived. Rather than resorting to heavy-handed discussions, the movie uses relatable everyday scenarios to convey its message. Despite not being a blockbuster hit, “Malayalee From India” is still recommended for its witty humor and thought-provoking subject matter.
